03 Feb The Monkey in 2024
Are you a Monkey?
You have a Monkey in your Bazi if you’re born in:
Monkey year: 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016 – the Monkey is in your Year Pillar
Monkey month: between the first week of August and the first week of September – the Monkey is in your Month Pillar. Note that the Chinese months can start as early as the 2nd or as late as the 9th calendar day of the month; best to check the Chinese calendar or leave a comment and send me a message
Monkey day: you need a Chinese calendar to check this, or leave a comment and send me a message – the Monkey is in your Day Pillar
Monkey hour: 3 pm – 5 pm (be careful to adjust for daylight saving time if it is applicable in your country of your birth) – the Monkey is in your Hour Pillar
The Monkey sign carries the Earth, Metal and Water energies – but Yang Metal is its main energy signature. This energy is sharp, shrewd, logical, mechanical and judgmental. The Monkey is most comfortable operating in zones with clear boundaries of right and wrong – places where there is a clear rule of law, but also rules of science and mathematics. His need for differentiation tends to make him uncomfortable with the grey zones of human experience: if left unchecked, his tendency to be judgmental can impair his personal life. The Monkey also has the gift of speaking – but not necessarily of communication. He will talk but may not divulge; emotional disclosure is uncomfortable for him.
The Dragon energies is naturally supportive of the Monkey, as when the Monkey, the Dragon and the Rat meet their energies combine to make Water (technically called the Three Harmonies or San He): communication, strategy, risk taking, persistence in achieving your goal but with flexibility on how to get there. The Wood stem of the Wood Dragon year also suggests work opportunities. In 2024, the Monkey will receive supportive energies but to really benefit from it, he needs to communicate and opens himself to others. These opportunities will arise in April (Dragon month), August (Monkey month) and January 2025 (Rat month).
In 2024, the Monkey will also be more motivated in his career or education. He needs to take care in furthering his ambitions this year; 2024 is not likely to be plain sailing and the Monkey needs to manage the impact of his ambition on his health and personal relationship.
The Monkey might feel that 2024 is challenging. For some relief, seek support from a Snake – but be aware that the Snake’s Fire will melt your Metal into Water: she makes you communicate. Again, learn to be comfortable with it. Also, please remember that you have four pillars in your Bazi, and that this is a forecast, not a sentence. It gives you the weather warning, but it is your action that will determine whether you will be caught in the rain or stay dry indoors.
Relationship: average – but there is a real opportunity to open your heart to those closest to you. They are worth your discomfort.
Wealth: average. Look out for opportunities in March.
Best months: April, August, December. May is also supportive but might be confusing.
Trickiest months: February (Tiger month, direct clash with the Monkey energy).
